November Artwork

Sophia did some really fun artwork for fall in the last few weeks at school. They made a raccoon which we've named Rocky and she knows that he likes to eat food straight out of the garbage can.

Then she made Indian corn. I think it's one of my favorite "pieces" so far.

I also really like the Indian guy because when I picked her up from school that day she told me she drew his smile. It's it a fantastic smile?

I'm assuming she also put his eyes on all by herself as well. I looked around at the Indians her classmates had made and I have to admit that hers was one of the better looking ones.

She made the little turkey at school. We call him Fat Turkey. The larger potato looking turkey was created by yours truly at a play date at Haley's house two weeks ago. The brown potato looking body is Sophia's feet - outline traced, cut and glued together. The "feathers" are her hands - outlined traced, cut and glued on. Imagine tracing and cutting all those pieces while holding a squirming 6 month old! It's no wonder I glued the hands onto the bottom of the turkey body instead of the top! Oh well.
